Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: James T. Gaensbauer, M.D., M.S. Each year, we recognize World TB Day on March 24. This annual event commemorates the date in 1882 when Dr. Robert Koch announced his discovery of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacillus that causes tuberculosis (TB). World TB Day is a day to educate the public about the impact of TB around the world.  The CDC, along with our partners and colleagues around the world, share successes in TB prevention and control and raise awareness of the challenges that hinder our progress toward the elimination of this devastating disease. Tuberculosis continues to be a global health concern.  Despite being preventable and very treatable, this disease continues to cause suffering and death.  It accounted for an estimated one and a quarter million deaths worldwide in 2023. In the United States, cases have been increasing over the past several years, and this is also true in children, especially in those under the age of 5 years. What are the common risk factors for tuberculosis in children? Is the disease different in children compared to adults? What should we, as a primary care provider do when we suspect tuberculosis in a young patient? These are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest for this podcast, James T. Gaensbauer, M.D., M.S., a pediatric infectious disease specialist at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Tuberculosis in Children”.

Host: Christopher L. Camp, M.D. Guest: Jason Ewoldt, M.S., RDN There aren’t many words out there than can conjure up emotions, confusion, and frustration quite like the word we are discussing today, and that word is “calories.” However, a discussion on calories doesn’t have to be so complex and loaded with this unnecessary baggage. Today, we are going to bring clarity to the topic by focusing on what you really need to know from both a scientific and practical perspective. In addition to better understanding what they are, we will discuss ways to help you know what your body’s caloric needs are for losing weight or maintaining a healthy weight. Finally, we will discuss practical strategies that help you achieve your fitness and health goals. The three big questions we will tackle in this episode are:1) What are calories, and why do they matter? 2) Why do people often misunderstand calories, and why is it so hard to get it right? 3) What can I do to figure out my caloric needs and actually stick to them? To help us answer these questions, my guest today is Jason Ewoldt M.S., RDN, who is a registered and licensed dietician and certified sports specialist dietician at Mayo Clinic.

Host: Christopher L. Camp, M.D. Guest: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. We would all be open to the idea of a little less stress in our lives, especially if we can fill that with joy and happiness. For most of us, this holds true for both our personal and professional lives. But in this age of increasing pressure, demands, expectations, and deadlines, is that even a realistic expectation? Today we are going to dive deep into the meaning of joy, why so many of us don’t get enough, and how that is impacting our overall lives. In addition to that, we will discuss some intentional strategies for replacing stress with joy to help us become our best selves. The three big questions we will tackle in this episode are:1) How do you define joy and happiness, and how do they play a role in our everyday lives? 2) Why do so many of us struggle with finding joy in our lives, and how is that impacting us? 3) How can we intentionally design our lives and work to experience more joy, and make joy our default? To help us answer these questions, my guest today is Darryl S. Chutka, M.D., General Internal Medicine Physician at Mayo Clinic and the host of the Mayo Clinic Talks Podcast.

In this episode of Beyond Clinical Walls, Dr. Bayo underscores the importance of comprehensive eye exams, which reveal more than just vision issues—they can indicate overall health concerns as well. Joined by Dr. Donahue, an optometrist with deep family roots in eye care, the discussion illuminates how routine eye examinations are a crucial aspect of preventive health care. Dr. Donahue highlights that eye exams can detect early signs of systemic conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol, long before other symptoms manifest. This episode reveals that an optometrist's role extends beyond prescribing glasses or contacts; they are pivotal in catching health issues early through the unique vantage point of eye health. The conversation also tackles common misconceptions about eye health, emphasizing that good vision does not negate the need for regular eye check-ups. Dr. Donahue shares insights on the critical differences between vision tests and thorough eye health examinations, stressing that both adults and children should undergo regular eye assessments to catch issues like glaucoma—often dubbed the "silent thief of sight"—before they cause severe damage. Dr. Bayo and Dr. Donahue discuss actionable tips and resources available for those who may not have direct access to eye care due to financial constraints, highlighting programs that provide essential services for eye health maintenance and care.

Host: Christopher L. Camp, M.D. Guest: Christina K. Zorn “Culture” is a word that gets a lot of attention, and deservedly so! It is often thought of as the lifeblood of an organization. However, many of us don’t think about the fact that “culture” doesn’t just exist at the level of large organizations. Culture exists for smaller groups, teams, families, and even individuals. In today’s episode, we will work to define “culture”, discuss its impact on groups (large and small) and individuals, provide real world examples of the impact of culture, and discuss ways of optimizing culture in both the workplace and at home. The three big questions we will tackle in this episode are:1) What exactly is “culture” and why is it so critical to success? 2) How does “culture” impact behavior and outcomes at work and at home? 3) What steps can I take to contribute to a positive culture in the workplace and for my own personal development? To help us answer these questions, my guest today is Christina K. Zorn, who is the Chief Administrative Officer of Mayo Clinic.
